Classic Albums. Hosted by Stevie Nix
Not all albums stand the test of time, but plenty do and Australian music critic Stevie Nix will bring one to you each week. He'll cover all eras and most genres and tell you why each record is so revered and, equally, why it deserves to be. And he only uses six songs to do it.

Us by Peter Gabriel
Us is particularly notable for its deeply personal lyrical content. While Gabriel's previous work often dealt with political themes or character-based narratives, this album turned inward to explore relationships, personal psychology and emotional vulnerability. Written during a period of intensive psychotherapy, the album is deeply personal — exploring his divorce, his subsequent relationship with actress Rosanna Arquette and the growing distance between him and his first daughter.
